Well, it's intentional anyway: that's handled by pg_dumpall. The basic design is that anything that can be seen from "outside" a specific database is handled on the pg_dumpall side. > I just got bitten by a DateStyle not being restored on my test DB You could also get bitten by not having restored users or tablespaces that the dump depends on, so I'm not sure there's a strong argument here for refactoring the responsibility. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
